joclo Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 It's true, over the winter NacraXtreme, NB Laser & Hobie Sports with Gosford Sailing Club have worked together to bring new life to the F18 Fleet within the Sydney Region. This coming Season 08/09 a new Fleet of F18 Catamarans will compete in a pointscore at Gosford Sailing Club along with the existing A Class boats. Up to "5" F18's are already on board with a good mix of Nacra, Hobie and Capricorn. This should see some exciting racing on the waters of Gosford and along with planned training and tuning days it will be an opportunity for all those new and old to the class to liven things up again. MAGIC MARINE, NSW has put forward prizes for overall piontscore winners, teams who attend the most races including regattas and best improved throughout the season. For all those wanting to race in a fleet again all are welcome. A pre season meeting at Gosford Sailing Club to review the format, and facilities is planned for Sat 30th August @ 11.30am and a open invitation is given to all Cat Sailors to come and be part of this new start to a great season of F18 Catamaran Sailing along with the Gosford Sailing Club.

joclo Posted August 25, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 To all, An update on the fleet numbers for the new season at Gosford Yacht Club, Nacra F18 - 3 Starters confirmed Hobie Tiger - 4 confirmed starters with possible 1 other Capricorn - 1 Boat ready to go. I have a second hand boat to sell as well A-Class - 2 existing Gosford members This will give us a fleet of 10 just to start with, I am uncertain of the existing fleet numbers from Gosford Yacht Club so there may be more. Racing will be Saturdays starting at 1.30pm with afternoon drinks once all are off the water. Hope to see as many boats as possible this season and a reminder of the meeting this coming Sat 30th August at GYC to confirm our Season Point Score and Racing Format.
